    Love Life

    One of the few movies that I watched so many times.

    Heart touching and complete piece of artwork.

    Very well written, directed and amazing performance by all stars.

    The soundtrack is another level, serves the movie in every scene.

    Sometimes I re-watch the movie just to enjoy the soundtrack that goes deeply to the soul.

    Amazing

    The performance of Mahmoud Hemaida reminds me of my father's style and behavior.

    How to live

    Photocopy is film that revolves around an old man "Mahmoud Photocopy" who has an empty life and deals with the society that he has seen evolve around him. The story shows the real meaning of life and ironically how an old man can make the most out of it.

    The film is very touching and easy to relate to no matter how old you are, the performances are all great excluding none. the music and the set locations are remarkable.

    It's sad to know that such a meaningful film is not getting much recognition in the modern Egyptian cinema.
